Comparison of Divine Attributes: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism
"That which possesses absolute perfection, is unchanging, independent, and beyond all limitations."

Islam: ✅ God is unchanging in nature.
Christianity: ❌ God "became" human in Jesus, implying a change in nature.
Judaism: ❌ God physically wrestles with Jacob (Genesis 32:24-30), suggesting a temporary change in nature for a specific purpose.

Judaism: ✅ God is self-sufficient and independent.

3. Transcendence (Beyond Time & Space)
